Mikkel You Hard Headed Son Of A........Just Listen Man

Mikkel i've told you before almost 4 years ago and i'll tell you again. You cannot leave your work undone. You NEVER put a stamp on OB2D rather you kept nit picking and playing with it as if it were a hobby. You want this game to do well? You need to advertise, market, (facebook?) (myspace) (Twitter?) You're easily discouraged when all you have to do is COMPLETE the GOAL. I'm talking making final decisions on the style and look of the game, keeping the titles you had before including South America, Europe, North America and the four Majors regardless of room activity. You will have highs and lows with any business, but if game designing is your dream than grow a spine and make it happen. I'm appreciative you've put so much time and effort in this Masterpiece you've created. My GOD i had an X Box 360 last year and there were times Online Boxing was more enjoyable because of its dynamics. The chat room along with the challenge you can send, and the audience to see the fights is genius. NOBODY is doing what you're doing Mikkel. But hey if you want to say fuck it. Than Fine. I say personally you're full of shit and a BIG asshole if you do that. You want to make this game lively the way it can STILL BE is by making it happen at all costs. I dont give a shit. You get off your ass and make this game what it deserves to be.

You think all these game designers with smash hits like GOD OF WAR, SMACKDOWN VS RAW, and all these other hit titles started off their lives with a dream and it happened overnight? Hell no.

The reason why OB Died is because of you. You have only yourself to blame in anything with this game. You are the owner, and we are the fans/customers it is your job to manage the upkeep and momentum of this game.

FINISH THIS PROJECT AND I ASSURE YOU THAT YOU WILL LIVE TO SEE THE REWARD.

How can a real estate agent expect a commission when a house is left half finished? Nobody wants to move into a house thats fixed up but has dirt floors or no electricity. Use your head Mikkel. Stop feeling sorry for yourself and finish THE FUCKING GAME!!!

I love you,
Andre

Hey I didnt quit this it all..for example spent 4-5 hours yesterday trying to fix the freeze thing..

Nothing lasts forever Yacoob. Not even fans of a great game playing forever. I doubt OB is his entire life nor is it the player's entire life. Be grateful for the good times.

i guess. Well thank you MIkkel for everything you've done. When i get going with my insurance license this month i want to invest money into your games. I promise you that.

First off, thanks mikkel for the game alone. I've been playing for.. 5, 6 years roughly? on and off of course. But I think you should just scrap ob3d. The "OB2D" Is where it's at man. If people want 3d they can go play fight night champion. OB2D is unique in it's gameplay, thats why we love it. I think with a few updates to OB2D and some marketing, we can get this game going again. However, The current community must all start playing more. If new players come to this game, and no one's online.. they'll just walk away from the game forever. I'd also like to suggest a few new features that would make the game a little more recent, yet maintain it's same feel and gameplay. More character customization. A few new hairstyles, such as a faux hawk,mo hawk, braids, etc.. A few more head models... Nothing too crazy to ask for. I've been developing my own games in blender. I know that these things wouldn't take much effort, so just curious to why you havent yet. The ability to watch your fights and others is amazing. One of the greatest features of the game. But also WE MUST BRING BACK SINGLE PLAYER. That or... just some kind of training game where you can practice all of your punches. Anyways, i'd like to market the game in my own time. But I feel any effort to do so is a waste of time unless there is some kind of single player for new players to try out if no ones online. Or if we could just get everyone to be a little more active. To sum things up... WE ALL KNOW how GREAT OB2D, One of the greatest games I have ever played. This game is simply AWESOME. So come on guys, let's bring this thing back to life. We need everyone to come together. Mikkel, and the rest of the community. Just try and play a little more often guys. And Mikkel if you could just get Single player going.. The new players and current players could have something to do. Even if there isn't anyone online.

I would like to say a few things in response to The Rockets post.

Firstly I agree with it whole heartedly. This is something I think alot agree with and have expressed for quite a while. I have even suggested those exact same ideas, Mikkel he is right. I even agree about the ob3d thing. I just wanna say a couple words about that too - OB3d was a great idea. I can't say I haven't wanted to do exactly what Mikkel has been trying to do with it / ob3d. The want to make ob3d as realistic / or a 3d boxing game which is just more realistic etc is a dream / great idea but I just think that it MIGHT be biting off more then u can chew, and a bit too complicated. I would love it but I just think it's a little bit too much to ask for. I personally would leave 3D to the EA / pro game developers etc even tho they are gay... there's a reason why they havent got it right! lol. But I gotta take my hat off to Mikkel for trying it and trying to supply us with it. Again, I gotta say, the Uniqueness and realistic aspect is something that Ob2d has.

Onto my Second point which is this, from what I understand, regarding the 'improvements' to ob2d that you have mentioned Rocket, Mikkel would be willing to do all that as long as there were more people coming to the game. This may seem a catch 22 situation as doing the improvements would help KEEP those people in the game, but nonetheless we should both make efforts to do both things. Which is why I am going to Direct you to the ADVERTISING OB Thread which has many answers and views, Where you can find 2 Ideas which can help Promote OB Our much loved Game. The first is an idea by Me half way down the thread about making comments on YouTube is very effective and is completely straight forward And Self Explanatory. The other is an Idea by Fatny (a very good 1) about sharing the OB link / game on Facebook.

I would also like to say it's good to see Black Bear back and you too Rocket.

I have answered all this so many times. I have the feeling you guys keep bringing it up because you want me to work fulltime on 2d again. Its futile though. I can tell you with 10000000% certainty its not going to happen

I think everyone should chill out with all the requests to Mikkel. Its a free game that is well designed and is easy to play but difficult to master.

If Mikkel acquiesces to demands like those of Rocket, then the next request will be to make an mma game and add a cage or octagon and let the players kick and do submissions.

You want to get the game going again? Everyone commenting here should show up at the actual game. Perhaps a specific time should be selected. Like 8 EST or whatever.

Thanks for everything Mikkel

Mikkel my final request is to put OB2D back in default the way it was back when i first joined back in 2004 - 2005 where you had the OBA, OBF, OBC, OBW, EUROPEAN, SOUTH AMERICAN, AND NORTH AMERICAN TITLE BELTS and SINGLE PLAYER. if you bring these things back and just do it and i mean like do it as in not even thinking about it and complete it and actually do it and sit down and say sure why not it wont hurt to make things the way they were that made people want to play and just f'ing do it i bet this game will come back to life. ok so youre going to do it? right?

And once you do this Mikkel and know you will because you're a compromising fan pleasing person i will have no more requests to ask. I just want my game back the way it was this is the only flash game i really like seriously. I used to stay on here for days on end and even enjoyed single player to work on my skills. CMON MAN!

Completely deflating my Yacoob ego im begging you to default the game. Im actually begging you dude my life is hard and OB2D has rescued me through many forks in the road and i say that in all honesty

Plan was pretty much to do all that..then suddenly stupid things like giga-spam came along. Had to write a program that could delete that(because default behavior of the forum was clicking delete, then it asked "do you really want to delete this ?". Pretty dumb when there is around 100K spam messages).
Then suddenly freeze came along. And I haven't figured it out yet.
Then suddenly some people couldnt create a new boxer. Solved that now, it's a java 7 thing. And so on and so on.
So it's not like I don't do anything.

Either way Mikkel I love you always and forever. i mean it. your awesome
